Out of Control

I can't keep my mind on one thing

Now my attention has spread thin

Like a slice of butter on my slab of toast

First thing in the morning

If I start a sentence, can't be sure I'll finish

You slant my words, you just disappear and diminish

I need something to watch but I stare at the image

And deliberate if I want my film to be British

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

Am I selling my soul to a toad in a hole

Yeah, it's out of control

Yeah, it's out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

When I start the meeting, better take the minutes

And not put down my pen until I say that I'm finished

Is it any wonder I've grown up a cynic

False promises laying siege to my spirit

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

I don't want to be bold, but

This is out of control

This is out of control

This is out of control

Now my back's against the wall

And I've signed up for the war

How'd it get so out of control?

Will I rise or will I fall?

Can I find some time to grow?

How'd it get so out of control?
